Please do not add or change content, as you did at Columbia University, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 01:00, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices. Hi Malik, thanks for your comments. As you may have already noticed, I added a few sources to my original text before you deleted them the second time. I would be happy to add more sources but, before I footnote every third word, I wonder if I could ask you if there is any particular statement I made that you find objectionable. To my knowledge, my content contribution is not particularly controversial. I would think it mostly of interest to folks like myself who are curious about the early history of American higher education. Furthermore, it's only a footnote as it is, not even in the main body of the text. If I proposed any content which you feel is either false or uncertain, just let me know and I'll try to either rephrase it or otherwise make you more comfortable. Fair enough? Thanks again for your thoughts. Best regards, Laila

Hello again Malik, I see that you've been back on the Columbia University page since I posted my message to you yesterday. I hope that means you've had a chance to read my thoughts and don't have a problem with them. Would it be okay if I reinstated my footnote to the page? Thanks again, Laila
